Hey bud agree with you - having the sensor at the rear of the car is not convenient, just a quick question I'm presuming only the main key fob is locked out whilst in the car and not the other spare right? (which will be in the house etc)

The Activity key was an "Absolute Must Have" for us from the moment we saw it.

We hated with previous cars when we went to the beach and wanted to go for a swim you had to keep an eye on your shoes (We stored our keys in our shoes). I bought a Pelican case (waterproof) for our keys but that was a paint to lug about.

We have been swimming 3 times already at our favorite spots and our friends are extremely envious of the Activity key:)

Anyone know if this can be retrofitted to a Velar that doesn’t have the Activity Key? I’ve been wanting one but haven’t really researched to see if it can be added to an existing vehicle.

Hey Fluke, I have added the Activity Key to my Velar that was not originally spec'd with the option. My dealer had to reach out to JLR corp for a special mounting bracket that was needed, but all in all it took about a week to get it installed. Works great!

Well that’s great to hear! Mind sharing what they quoted you all-in? I’m sure many that didn’t spec it or bought off the lot without it would consider adding if reasonable.

I was told it was around £300 for the transmitter and key you pay separately.

I wouldn't say it is a feature you will use everyday but when you do get used to it, it's absolutely stunning. Wish it would integrate with a phone or smart watch and be locked at the door rather than the rear door at the minute.

The activity key locks and unlocks the car right?
Does it do anything else?

Importantly, it re-enables any key that was in the car when it was locked. So, for example, if you lock the car with the activity key, and unlock it with the remote app, any key in the car remains disabled.

EDIT: I've just done some testing, and it's not only keys that are *inside* the car that are disabled, but keys that are *near* the car.
